Witch Doctor Tattoo

Thanks to fu_kear for the tip, who spotted it on BME Zine. Here’s a quote from the post there.

You know someone is a fan of video games when they get a tattoo of a video game character from a game that isn’t even released yet. Diablo 3 is sure to be a big hit, and this tattoo of the witch doctor by Roger from Star City Tattoo in Roanoke, VA shows us just how excited Diablo fans are for the new game.

So how about it, guys and girls? Do you have any tats? Would you consider adding one (or getting your first) of an image from Diablo III?

I wouldn’t entirely rule it out for my arm or back at some point, but I’d want to be sure my artist was good enough to do the original piece justice; the quality of the Blizzard artists is a hard act to follow. After all, the Internet abounds with pictures of tattoos that are really not “close enough.”

If I was gunna get a video game tat it would prob just be a cool little symbol, I really wouldn’t want to look like a nerd.. even tho deep inside i know it to be true. I’d probably get a little protoss symbol. My life for Aiur baby

I’m surprised how good that looks, especially since most game-related tattoos look horrible. That tattoo artist did a very fine job indeed, it looks almost identical to the source and retains a lot of detail.

I was thinking about it for a while now. The problem with the tattoos is that they are kinda permanent. Will I like this design twenty years from now? But if anything it will be something small – like D3 logo.

Yes 🙂 At the time I consider myself as an atheist and at the same time interested in black metal and satanism. But I grew out of my teens and now I’m an agnostic. i.e Very much not religious and dislike every aspect of it. So! Great to see that deamon again, 1995 was the correct year for my tattoo.
